Yes, I did that, and they circulate sooo much more.  They have a translucent green sticker over the spine label that indicates they are biographies, so if students are looking specifically for a biography, they can find them.  I have no 920’s at all.  A few were hard to determine, such as Helen Keller, but I asked kids where they would look for them, and took the majority answer. I still have kids surprised that I have all of the titles that I do—they had never checked out biographies, but here’s Neil Armstrong!  Or Elvis Pressley!

Has anyone integrated their biographies into the area of Dewey that the person is known for rather than keeping them in separate location?

Athletes in the 790's instead of in the 920's or B?

If so, does this make it easier for students to locate biographies of interest to them?
